:Today’s technological advancements facilitated the researcher in collecting and organizing various forms of healthcare data. Data is an integral part of health care analytics. Drug discovery for clinical data analytics forms an important breakthrough work in terms of computational approaches in health care systems. On the other hand, healthcare analysis provides better value for money. The health care data management is very challenging as 80% of the data is unstructured as it includes handwritten documents, images; computer-generated clinical reports such as MRI, ECG, city scan, etc. The paper aims at providing a summary of work carried out by scientists and researchers who worked in health care domains. More precisely the work focuses on clinical data analysis for the period 2013 to 2019. The organization of the work carried out is specifically with concerned to data sets, Techniques, and Methods used, Tools adopted, Key Findings in clinical data analysis. The overall objective is to identify the current challenges, trends, and gaps in clinical data analysis. The pathway of the work is focused on carrying out on the bibliometric survey and summarization of the key findings in a novel way.

What is the perception of Turkish migrants in elderly care? The increasing number of elder migrants within the German and Austrian population is causing the challenge of including them in an adequate (culturally sensitive) way into the German/Austrian health care system. Here I introduce the perception of elder Turkish migrants within the predominant paradigm of intercultural opening of health care in Germany as well as within the concept of diversity management of health care in Vienna (Austria). The qualitative investigation follows a field research in different German and Austrian cities within the last four years and an analysis based on the Grounded Theory Methodology. The meaning of intercultural opening on the one hand, and diversity management on the other hand with respect to elderly care will be evaluated. Whereas the intercultural opening directly demands a reduction of barriers to access institutional elderly care the concept of diversity is hardly successful in the inclusion of migrants into elderly care assistance – concerning both, migrants as care-givers and migrants as care-receivers. Despite the similarities between the health care systems of Germany and Austria there are decisive differences in the perception and inclusion of migrants in elderly care that is largely based on an 'individual care' concept of the responsible institutions. Finally, this investigation demonstrates how elderly care in Germany and Austria prepares to encounter the demand of 'individual care' in a diverse society.

Are health care systems converging in developing nations? We use the case of health care financing in Latin America between 1995 and 2009 to assess the predictions of modernization theory, competing strands of globalization theory, and accounts of persistent cross-national differences. As predicted by modernization theory, we find convergence in overall health spending. The public share of health spending increased over this time period, with no convergence in the public-private mix. The findings indicate robust heterogeneity of national health care systems and suggest that globalization fosters human investment health policies rather than neoliberal, “race to the bottom” cutbacks in public health expenditures.
